Leather-origin & Tannin

We source our leather from Leather Tannery Conceria 800 in Florence, Italy, which meets LWG (Leather Working Group) standards.

Each single product is a unique artisan masterpiece, thanks to the skill of our master tanners who use hand-antiquing techniques and natural fly-spooling.
